Okay, so it’s more of an amble, lazy stroll or perhaps just a mooch on the wild side if I’m honest, but if you head on down to The Sheds at 1 Fox in Ferreirasdorp, Johannesburg, you can wander round the studio and admire the crème de la crème of 2015-2016’s Wildlife Photographer of the Year Competition.

The images are stunning and include battling bee eaters, ethereal insects, an army of soldier ants and surreal (and yet in actual fact real) landscapes. Some images are mind bending and it can take a while for your brain to decode what you are seeing. Other images are so beautifully and creatively composed that it’s humbling to realise that the very youngest photographers are only 10 years old.

It was blissfully quiet when we visited, presenting the opportunity to take our time and enjoy the exhibition. Understandably, no photography is allowed inside the gallery space, so you’ll have to drop by in person to appreciate the skill, infinite patience, ingenuity and star aligning luck involved in capturing these amazing shots.

There are a selection of glossy photography books, magnets and postcards for sale at the entrance. Prints must be ordered from the Natural History Museum in London. The exhibition runs until 31 August 2016, you can find out more HERE.
